MemberNot sure what happened there, but I did just email – files are only 3MBs total.
MemberYes, the files are only linking to urls.
I don’t know how to duplicate the problem in a dummy file, so instead and going to share the link to a copy of the files we are currently working on. I’ve labeled the two documents HyperlinksMissing_letterdoc.indd and HyperlinksVisible_websiteversion.indd
I should note that she also tried sharing these to me as IDML files and the first try worked but the second time did not (after she only altered the color and size of the font).
Here is the link.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1c-AHMgEz2_2v8-U_KrhEo623jORoiimgMemberThe hyperlinks panel isn’t empty, it shows the items that are supposed to be linked but doesn’t actually show the urls to link to instead we have a question mark where a red or green dot traditional is. This is happening across computers including on hers if she downloads the file from the drive.
MemberNo, I’m referring to hyperlinks inside the indesign document. When she either zips it and emails the file to me or uploads it to our google drive, the hyperlinks disappear.
MemberIt looks like this forum automatically changes the abbrv for ampersand to &, so to clarify the coding changed from “&” to “& ampersand” when I copied and pasted
MemberKai, thank you so much for your help! It worked.
Somehow during the process of copying your code into my text editor all instances of “&” changed to “&”
Ex:
i(pStyleName == “COMPANY NAME” &&it copied
(pStyleName == “COMPANY NAME” &&Thanks again, this saved me hours of work.
MemberYes, I did copy everything.
line 9:
for (p = 0 ; p < allParas.length; p++) {MemberWhen I tried to run the script on my text file I got the following error:
Error Number: 25
Error String: Expected: )Engine: main
Line: 9
Source: for (p = ); p < allParas.length; p++){
Offending Text: ;MemberI knew I should’ve started a new thread but again was having trouble sorting it out. I swear I will be a better poster in the future.
Having said that, I just created a second example that is clearer. https://www.dropbox.com/s/kvsdiml5vz9un9y/Sample2.indd?dl=0
All “City” and “Listing Types” are set for All Caps, and they also are the only listing that both include paragraph rules, if that is an easier way to solve it.
This is a really long listings book (about 400 pages) and most of the time I need the space between each listing, except where shown. I’m working from a template that another designer created, so there are a things I would’ve set up different if starting from scratch, but I’m trying to not have to change everything.
MemberI don’t see a way for me to upload a file, so I’ve provided a link:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/4h0fa6m99tbtfww/Sample%20File.idml?dl=0
Sorry if this isn’t the best way, I’m totally new to this.
MemberHi I am trying to do something similar. I am working on a directory that has many listings. I need to get rid of inset spacing above any listing directly following a city and listing type. The style created currently has a .9 inset spacing above a new line and I want to set that spacing to 0. Both “City” and “Listing Type” are in all caps, so the only way I can think to do this is to write code that says “any paragraph starting after a paragraph with all caps should have no space” but I can’t seem to get the code correct.
For example what I have is:
CITY
LISTING TYPE
Company Name
contact infoWhat I want is:
CITY
LISTING TYPE
Company Name
contact infoAny help would be appreciated!
